Yes, yes before you all tell me it's a "restricted" color until 2017 due to factory retooling, we have to keep trying for one of us just might get lucky!

Thank you! It doesn't hurt to try my man!

They did bolt directly in, but we don't have the heated seats and airbag working just yet... Aleks is working on that

Simple is clean

Your cads are always so perfectly modded Jbook!

Thank you sir! I was absolutely floored when I saw the result.

any plans to complete the CF on the DCT handle?

Thanks Jimmy! I honestly think the CF DCT handle is a bit too much CF and doesn't look as clean. IND custom painted the trim on the BMW performance steering wheel gloss black by the CF, so I'm thinking of having them paint the silver on the DCT handle gloss black as well. I do like a bit of the silver to match the performance seats though.

Brother, I must say this is amazing. Love the orange stripe on the steering wheel. It's the little custom touches that make builds like these special.

If I may, one mod I would highly recommend is the m performance CF door handles on the interior. I think it would finish it off nicely, and they're only a couple hundred bucks.

Amazing car. Enjoy it.

Thank you! I really do believe it's about the simple touches to set it off. Not too much orange, but just a bit on the inside keeps it as classy as an orange car can be haha. I definitely may consider those down the line.

I'm definitely enjoying the car. I took it to the track as soon as I completed the break-in service

Wow that looks great!

Joel, I finally forgive you for the E90.

Mark the exterior pics looks like a painting. Insane.

IM2C · 12-02-2015, 11:30 PM

Definitely not your daily driver. In my, personal, subjective, biased opinion.....it would have been perfect with FO brembos. Just saying.

haynstyleM2 · 12-03-2015, 12:14 AM

I really wanted some contrast with the brakes. I was hesitant to go with the yellow, but I'm VERY glad Aleks convinced me that it would look as great as it does.

Unfortunately they have been discontinued. These were one of the most desired parts when I was parting out my e90 M3, but I just couldn't let them go!

Thanks! Although it was a very quick build, it really came together nicely piece by piece.

Very nice! Your '15 has a lot of the same build characteristics as my '16. Just posted these a couple of days ago! (http://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho....php?t=1197553)

We think alike! Nicely done!

An M3 GTS Tribute car needs a Wing though! ;-)
